Product Overview
The Hyper 103 is an affordable mainstream heatsink that delivers great cooling performance. Air flow is optimized towards heatpipes thanks to a special fin design and exclusive X-Vent and Air-Guide technology. A 92mm PWM fan has a wide speed range. This low profile tower heatsink is a great match for all modern small form factor systems. Features
• Cooler Master exclusive X-Vent and Air-Guide technology optimize the air flow toward heatpipes and ultimately reduce CPU temperature.• 3 direct Contact heatpipes with stylish aluminum fins to provide excellent heat dissipation.• 92mm wide range PWM blue LED fan, RPM can be fine tuned for maximum airflow or whisper quiet operation.• New tool-free mounting system for trouble-less installation.

The purpose of this TekSpek is to delineate the publicly known features of Intel’s next generation desktop microarchitecture. Codenamed Conroe and officially titled Intel Core 2 Duo, it’s loosely based on the current mobile Yonah (Core Duo) underpinnings.

This TekSpek explains what AMD’s AMD64 CPU instruction set architecture (ISA) is, shows what CPUs implement it from both AMD and Intel, and explains what software is available to run on those 64-bit consumer processors.

The modern PC is potentially a mass of heat output and heat production hot spots. With CPUs rated at more than 100W of heat output, single graphics boards carrying similar ratings (and people want to run two!), multiple hard drives the norm, lots of memory and mainboards covered in heatpipes to combat toasty core logic and PWM circuits, a PC appreciably warming up a room when it’s working hard is no joke.

There’s been a lot of hype about Intel’s Core 2 recently, even since they launched Core in fact. Words like Conroe, Badaxe and Allendale have been flying around. The bottom line is that Core 2 is the name of Intel’s latest line of CPUs, based on a new micro-architecture, designed for speed and efficiency.

Anybody who has been near their share of computer systems will appreciate that not all systems make the same amount of noise. There are a number of reasons for why this is so. Firstly, a computer makes noise for different reasons. Generally, anything mechanical is going to make noise.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Ziggomatic A good little cooler
This is a great little cpu cooler for the price. While I doubt it would be a good choice for overclocking, it is both much cooler and much quieter that the awful stock fans that come with most CPUs.
Installation takes a little bit of time, but as long as you read the instructions carefully you shouldn't have any problems.

Rated 5 out of 5 by carlost Successfully cooled my old AMD 955
My old 955 based PC was getting far to warm, made noticeable via the stock cooling that came with the chip revving up near constantly when it was in use by the kids for mundane tasks such as homework or War Thunder (5770 was used as well).
After reseating and reapplying the thermal paste it was still in the 55-60c range when crunching numbers so I gave in and bought a larger case (Enermax ECA3250-BW Ostrog) some new t.paste and this heatsink & fan.
Worked a treat. Although smaller than my 212 it has brought the CPU temp down to 25-30c at any given time ergo the PC is now rather silent. I'd recommend this if you want a good heatsink & fan for less than £20.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Maxingitout Excellent cooler that works perfectly
This cooler is a fantastic value for money, I originally bought this to have a spare for when i get a new one, but now I have used this as my main cooler it is that good, the hottest my CPU has got is about 39.c I think, I am remarkably impressed with this product and I would definitely recommend this!

The picture on this site show just the cooler itself - not the brackets and mounts.The cooler comes with the brackets needed to mount it to your motherboard & CPU. There are also some Ikea style instructions supplied that show which brackets and holes are used depending on your CPU and motherboard. Just take your time and don't forget to re-apply the thermal paste (I think it comes with some but can't remember as I have a couple of tubes kicking around anyway).So to answer your original question: it comes with all the bits necessary to install it and replace your stock fan.

To note though, if your temps are getting high then maybe all you need to do is clean the stock cooler and re-apply the thermal paste?
